Listed here is an early American fountain pen produced by Wahl-Eversharp called the Wahl Pen. This pen and others in its line are the predecessors of the Wahl-Eversharp Gold Seal line of pens. This pen comes in Jade Green which is a color that is often prone to discoloration. Fortunately the color on this pen is pretty good in its consistency across the cap and barrel. Good Luck!
C
AP and BARREL
The cap is in VERY GOOD condition. There are no cap lip cracks, chips, or major scratches. The trim (lever included) show little to no wear. It screws securely onto the barrel. The manufacturer's imprints at the top of the cap are super crisp and entirely present.
The barrel is in VERY GOOD condition. The lever actuates nicely. There is a small scuff on the black bottom of the pen.
WAHL-EVERSHARP #2 14K MANIFOLD NIB
This Wahl-Eversharp fountain pen features its original Wahl #2 manifold nib. The nib's imprints are entirely present and well preserved. The nib is firm. It writes like a fine and is good for precise writing. The tines are perfectly aligned and the nib is oriented properly on the original ebonite feed. The nib is nice and smooth with optimal flow for vellum paper. I used it on 52 gsm Tomoe River paper with Montblanc Around the World in 80 Days Blue ink.
RESTORATION SERVICES
This vintage Wahl-Eversharp Wahl Pen fountain pen has been cleaned and tested for function (filling and writing). It is READY TO WRITE upon filling with standard fountain pen ink.
A brand new latex ink sac
has been properly installed with a dry lubricant to improve performance and longevity.
Renaissance Wax
(yes, only the best) has been sparingly applied to the surface to protect and preserve the celluloid
as well as the gold-plated surfaces
. Renaissance Wax is used by professional vintage pen restorers and other esteemed institutions such as the British Museum. It is great for protecting metals from oxidation and for protecting surfaces that often come into contact with hands.
This
wax
will not stain or discolor with aging. It is 1

acid neutral
; 2.

; and
3.
alcohol resistant. The Renaissance Wax will preserve the color of the ebonuite and protect from further color loss.
The Wahl #2 gold nib has been
adjusted for smoothness and flow
.
Beyond making sure that the pens I restore write, I like to make sure they
write well. Using a loupe, premium micro-abrasives, and when necessary, specially made nib repair tools each nib is carefully adjusted to provide an enjoyable writing experience based on the particular characteristics of the nib.
The Wahl Pen has been fully disassembled and cleaned.
